I retained Atty Gilbert in the middle of the month of April for 4 different charges, 2 of which were traffic related in order to initiate the stop. Right from day 1 he stated that he would file a series of different motions to get these charges dismissed. He never filed a motion until after 3 different appearances in court and then it was only 1 motion and at that point in time it was more out of desperation than anything else. It was done at the last minute after a pre-trial hearing date had already been set.
Atty Gilbert let the prosecuting atty believe that he wasn't going to file any motions so that the prosecuting atty was throwing the book at me because he wasn't going to get any resistance.
Atty Gilbert did a poor job at the Administrative Review Hearing and when that went sour he didn't challenge those findings and everything went south from that point on in his representation of my case.
